ABSTRACT:
A game is provided which includes a game board having a first planar member representative of the sea, with the upper edge of the first planar member representing the horizon. A second planar member, representing a ship, is pivotally mounted to the first planar member in essentially co-planar relationship therewith, so that as the second planar member is turned about its pivot axis, the ship represented thereby moves behind the first planar member and thereby sinks below the surface of the sea. The second planar member also has a rescue ship inscribed thereon, so that when the second planar member is fully turned through 180.degree., so as to position the first ship behind the first planar member, the rescue ship is revealed on the horizon. The game board also includes a third planar member adjacent the upper edge thereof and in essentially co-planar relationship therewith, and which is clipped to the first planar member. The third planar member represents the sky. The second planar member is mounted to be disposed between the first and third planar members.
